What are your favorite embellishments to use on your layout?
Do you like to make your own embellishments or buy them?

Stickers-cardstock ones. I buy them.
I'm always using enamel dots as a finishing touch....I've thought of making my own but haven't tried.

I must admit that I may not be proud, but I am a traditionalist and still love some really cool stickers, and flowers, and admittedly I never think I make my  own good enough so they are usually store bought.

Thickers - a good title can really make a layout pop!

I really like fancy cutting things out from patterned paper or chopping up PL cards.

Flowers, washi, but mostly bling!

I usually buy them, but I have recently discovered using Copic markers to alter clear bling and white pearl bling so you can pretty much have whatever you need!

I like petaloo flowers which I of course buy a lot of at ACOT.  lol  I love washi.  I like the WeRMKeepers embossed tags.  And of course lots of bling. not big on buttons or ribbons but the Bo Bunny chipboard buttons to match each line have been catching my attention lately.   They are awesome

My favorite embellishments tend to be on the larger side--such as chipboard, journaling spots, or flowers.

enamel dots/shapes, brads, washi tape, twine. those are the most commonly used I'd say. oh, and some kind of misting ink or inked edges. weird, cause a few years ago I'd have answered with buttons, flowers, and ribbon. not anymore, I rarely use those anymore.

Wood veneer, enamel dots and washi.  I have been doing more fussy cutting lately to make my own.

Oh my goodness, what don't I love?  I love everything!  Some of my favorites are thickers, enamel dots and wood veneer!  I also enjoy fussy cutting items from patterned paper as well!

I love to use chipboard and Thickers for dimension. I'm not an overly flowery person but if they match with what I'm using and are pretty enough I'll stick em' on there!

Lately I have been cutting a lot of stuff with my Cricut, so a variety of shapes cut out of cardstock --- arrows, stars, journal spots are recent things.

I've never made my own embellishments. I use all sorts of things. Can't think of anything that is my favorite. Maybe stickers I still use them a lot
